Read the excerpt from "On Becoming an Inventor" by Dean Kamen.
What can you conclude about Dean from the excerpt?
O His ultimate goal was to create jobs for his brother
and his friends.
His main interest was designing and inventing new
things
From this well-stocked basement came a whole new set
of really neat projects. My younger brother, Mitch, and
his friends, as well as some of my own friends, would
come after school to help. At sixteen I was now a young
entrepreneur, paying them for their help. I was surprised
by the number of orders I was getting for more and more
equipment. Soon I didn't have time to build and design
new things. Giving over this work to other kids gave me
more time to do what I wanted to do. This went on after
school and all summer long.
O He lacked the motivation to build the equipment by
himself.
O He valued money more than he valued his brother
and friends
